Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The role of cyclones over the mid-latitudes and Arctic region on the Arctic amplification was investigated using field and numerical experiments. Our findings are: (1) cyclone activities over Eurasia modify the water cycle and resultant river discharge through the moisture transport, and are important for composing an atmospheric weather pattern over the Arctic region which induces sea-ice transports during summer; (2) changes in cyclone activities over Barents and Bering Seas influence the recent warming over the Arctic Ocean and sea-ice retreat during winter, and cause cold extremes over mid-latitudes. A change in the upper ocean temperature in the marginal seas would be a key component for skillful seasonal forecasts; and (3) For the better navigation over the Northern Sea Route, forecasts of surface winds and sea-ice drifts induced by a well-developed Arctic cyclone can be improved with an intensive radiosonde observing network.
